If you had to give one reason why sermons should be transcribed, what would it be?

Accessibility. A transcribed sermon simply increases the accessibility of God’s Word.

But also, for those desiring to study the sermon further, a sermon transcript can be highlighted and marked with comments and notes. A transcribed sermon also serves as a verbatim record for future reference.

Those who are hearing impaired can read a sermon transcript if they cannot hear the sermon preached. Those under time constraints can read a transcript more quickly than listening to a recorded sermon.

If a church can afford the additional ministry expense, these are just some of the benefits of providing sermon transcription to your congregation and conference attendees.
